Depends strongly on taste and mood.

My Dying Bride - For My Fallen Angel can bring tears to my eyes.

Sentenced can depress some people, but I find it uplifting. They sing only about loss, lonelyness and pain though.

Jackson Browne - Late for the Sky

"Looking hard into your eyes
there was nobody I'd ever known.
Such and empty suprise,
to be so alone."

Also

Ben Harper - Another Lonely Day

Alice in Chains - Don't Follow

Hey, I ain't never coming home
Hey, I'll just wander my own road
Hey, I can't meet you here tomorrow
Say goodbye don't follow
Misery so hollow

Hey you, you're livin' life full throttle
Hey you, pass me down that bottle, yeah
Hey you, you can't shake me round now
I get so lost and don't know how, yeah
And it hurts to care, I'm going down

Forgot my woman, lost my friends
Things I'd done and where I've been
Sleep in sweat the mirrors cold
See my face it's growin' old
Scared to death no reason why
Do whatever to get me by
Think about the things I said
Read the page it's cold and dead

Take me home (5x)

Say goodbye Don't follow

Hoobastank - The Reason
Are you kidding me? The only thing I regret when I hear that song is having turned on the radio.
